Genetic Algorithm as an Attributes Selection Tool for Learning Algorithms

Learning algorithms, as NN or C4.5 require adequate sets of examples. In the paper we present the usability of genetic algorithms for selection significant features. Fitness of individuals is calculated on the basis of classification quality using NN or C4.5 algorithm. Results confirm that selected by GA significant features for C4.5 are also useful for NNs algorithm, but
